Alex Gibney directs a documentary investigating the rise and fall of Theranos, the one-time multibillion-dollar healthcare company founded by Elizabeth Holmes. In 2004, Elizabeth Holmes dropped out of Stanford to start a company that was going to revolutionize healthcare. In 2014, Theranos was valued at $9 billion, making Holmes, who was touted as ?the next Steve Jobs,? the youngest self-made female billionaire in the world. Just two years later, Theranos was cited as a ?massive fraud? by the SEC, and its value was less than zero. [HBO]Release Date: Mar 15, 2019
